New Medical Fund: treating children and civil defense

The act creates two new subfunds within the Medical Fund: one for financing modern therapies for children with rare diseases, and another for modernizing hospitals for national defense purposes. This means children with rare diseases may receive expensive, one-time hospital treatments, and hospitals will be better prepared for crisis situations like war. The act also increases healthcare spending for 2026-2029, which may affect the availability and quality of medical services.
Key points
New subfund for treating children with rare diseases: the state will pay for one-time, advanced hospital therapies for patients under 18 if standard treatment fails.
New defense subfund: hospitals can receive grants for construction, modernization, and equipment to better handle crisis situations (e.g., martial law).
More money for healthcare: in 2026-2029, state budget payments to the Medical Fund will total at least 25.7 billion PLN, aiming to improve the healthcare system's finances.
Simplified procedures for NFZ: in 2025, changing the Medical Fund's financial plan to cover treatment costs will not require the finance minister's approval or a parliamentary committee's opinion.
New tasks for the IT system: funds from the Medical Fund can be used to improve the quality of teleinformatics patient service.
